There are a fair number of Dutch and Dutch speakers in Holland, Michigan and
around those areas. Also Grand Rapids, MI.

The "Pennsylvania dutch" are actually german, for all I know.
Seems that like a case of one person saying "deutsche" and
another hearing "dutch". At least that's the explanation
that I heard from a native. This native was born in a farm,
then went to Drexel university, and now he's a phd and a top
programmer of web applications for research purposes. So
not all "Pennsylvania dutch" are technology averse. His
dad, still a farmer, uses a Mac. So they even have taste
in technology.

Although I am in the Netherlands I am not a
native
speaker. I will begin my Dutch language course in
April but doubt I will be reading Nederlands
very proficiently too soon. :)
Where else do they speak Dutch besides some rural parts of Pennsylvania
where they generally shun technology? :)
